Congratulations to Olivier Messiaen!
2008 December 10
Today Messiaen would have been 100 years. Tonight I have performed on my laptop in a concert to Messiaens memory as a part of MDO, a swedish laptop orchestra. Originally the concert was thought to be with a Messiaen-quartet performing his famous work Quartet for the End of Times. I also wrote a new piece with a clear reference to Messiaens work, which were to have its first performance on the concert. Things turned out differently and the concert ended up featuring organ and laptop orchestra instead. Beyond the End of Times (score pdf)
Peter Bjuhr Composer
Here I publish information of the music I've written. I also blog about my projects and thoughts about music in general.
I am a contemporary classical composer and compose music for classical musicians, but as you can see from my worklist I've also done other things - including live electronics, electroacoustic music (eam) and music for other types of ensembles (e.g. a jazz trio).
My works have been performed globally, including Europe, Asia and North America.
